# getDiagramImage

Render a diagram that ALREADY exists in a document to an IMAGE (svg/png/jpeg @1x/2x/3x) and return it — a temporary signed URL (expires in 1 hour) plus, for png/jpeg, the image inline so you can see it. Pass the diagramId (from getDocument's DIAGRAM markers or getDiagramInDocument). Reuses the diagram's cached server render when available (pixel-identical to the editor); when the diagram has no cached render yet, the fresh render is persisted back to the document (persistedRender:true in the response), so reading repairs unrendered diagrams. Use renderDiagram instead to generate from raw DSL without an existing diagram.

- Parameters: 4 (1 required)
- Recommended policy verdict: Allowed

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `scale` | number | no | Raster resolution multiplier 1x/2x/3x (default 2). Ignored for svg. |
| `format` | string | no | png (default) or jpeg = raster; svg = vector. |
| `diagramId` | string | yes | The diagram's id (from getDocument markers / getDiagramInDocument). |
| `background` | string | no | Background for png/jpeg, e.g. '#ffffff' or 'transparent' (png only). |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "getDiagramImage",
    "arguments": {
      "diagramId": "<diagramId>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why getDiagramImage is rated Low

This tool performs a retrieval operation on existing data (diagrams) and converts it to displayable formats. There are no side effects that create, modify, delete, or execute arbitrary operations. The only data persistence mentioned ('persistedRender:true') is a repair of unrendered diagrams on read, which is a benign side effect of repair rather than destructive modification.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool renders and retrieves an already-existing diagram to image formats (svg/png/jpeg) and returns a temporary signed URL plus inline image data."

## Use case

AI agents call getDiagramImage to retrieve information from Stable Baseline without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Stable Baseline:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "getDiagramImage": {}
  }
}
```
